Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hot water fitting for tapping water with a temperature of over 60 ° according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • hot water fittings In addition to mixing water and thermostatic valves hot water fittings are known, in particular, deliver small amounts of water or steam at temperatures up to 110 ° C. The latter are mainly used in kitchens, where hot or boiling water is used especially in small quantities for brewing tea, coffee, poaching or the like. Since the risk of scalding due to the high temperatures, it is necessary to provide such fittings with certain security devices.
  • the spout is often turned and thus handled when filling a vessel, especially when hot water is being tapped there is a risk of burning when the spout is touched.
  • a hot water tap which has the features of the preamble of claim 1 and whose outlet is lined with a heat-insulating material.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a hot water fitting in which there is no risk of burns when touching even at high water temperatures.
  • a hot water fitting for tapping water at a temperature of about 60 ° C with a rotatable about a vertical axis spout comprising an outer casing surrounding a water guide and having a shut-off valve, wherein the water guide is connected to an outlet opening of the shut-off valve in which the water guide is arranged in the outlet at a distance from the outer shell, wherein in the space between the water guide and the outer shell of the outlet an insulating layer of air is enclosed.
  • the water supply is thermally decoupled from the outer shell of the outlet, so that there can be no heat transfer due to heat conduction.
  • the water supply is provided from a flexible hose. This makes it possible to flexibly adapt the hose to any outlet shape.
  • the tube consists of a silicone, polysiloxane or polyterafluoroethylene (PTFE or Teflon).
  • PTFE polyterafluoroethylene
  • a sheath made of stainless steel or plastic fabric can be arranged.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section through a hot water fitting for tapping hot water.
  • an outlet 6 is rotatably mounted via an insert 5.
  • a water supply line 1 leads to a water inlet opening of a shut-off valve 2.
  • a water guide 3 in the form of a flexible hose to the jet former 7 at the end of the outlet 6 is arranged.
  • FIG. 2 shows in section through the hot water tap FIG. 1 a handle 9, which is provided for actuating the shut-off valve 2.
  • the grips of such handles 9 are usually made of a plastic material, so that the spindle of the shut-off valve 2 is sufficiently insulated from the user.
  • a fastening device 8 usually a threaded rod or the like is provided with associated screw, by means of which the hot water fitting a tap bank or countertop can be fixed.
  • the outlet 6 can be touched when pivoting in many different places, it is necessary to provide over its entire length for sufficient thermal insulation. Therefore, the flexible hose from the attachment point of the outlet 6 to the jet former 7 or, the water outlet arranged at a distance from the outlet outer shell, whereby it is thermally decoupled from the water supply 3. Due to the insulating air layer between the hose and outlet 6, it can not come to direct heat transfer.
